The Jewish agency for Palestine sent a memorandum today to high commissioner sir Harold Alfred MacMichael demanding restoration of the economic absorptive capacity principle of Palestine immigration.

Curtailment of Jewish immigration was assailed as harmful to the city of Tel Aviv and unjust in light of the Austrian situation, by mayor Israel Rokach, addressing a meeting of the all-Jewish city’s municipal council last night.
